Textual Community

Today I give a brief preview of what you can expect on Lingering on the Lectionary for the rest of the year. I also survey the papers I am presenting at this year's annual academic meetings (ETS / SBL).  The book I mentioned that contains the previously unpublished essay by John Sailhamer is The Seminary as Textual Community: Exploring John Sailhamer's Vision for Theological Education (Fontes, 2021).  https://amzn.to/2YJPmWw The SBL/IBR research group details for this year can be found here:  https://ibr-bbr.org/annual-meeting/research-groups/biblical-theology Thanks for listening!

In this discussion, I talk with Zach M. Bowden about his teaching and academic work in Church History and Historical Theology. We also discuss one of his essays on the church in the Medieval era & some of our formative experiences in theological education. Zach is an Assistant Professor of Theological Studies at Cedarville University.   You can read the essay we discuss in Historical Theology for the Church (B&H, 2020). https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/143...   You can also catch this interview as part of the Lingering on the Lectionary podcast: https://linktr.ee/lectionary   Thanks for listening!
